Liverpool target keeper Mignolet

Liverpool are interested in Sunderland keeper Simon Mignolet but it is understood any deal will require a bid in the region of £9million.
The Belgium international is rumoured to want to leave the Stadium of Light in order to boost his 2014 World Cup ambitions and he has also been linked with Arsenal.
Liverpool could be in need of a goalkeeper given that speculation continues to link their current number one, Jose Reina, with Barcelona.
Sunderland, though, will not be keen to sell Mignolet, who was their Player of the Year in the 2012/13 season.
But the 25-year-old has only two years remaining on his contract and Sunderland will know his value will decrease as time drags on.
However, Sky Sports understands the North East club would still want at least £9million from Liverpool, who have also been linked with Stoke City's Asmir Begovic.
